It's extremely unfair that stoner stereotypes are still part of the smokers every day experience. Whether you live in a place where marijuana is legal or not, stoners always seem to face some kind of difficulty when making their way through life. Those who choose to broadcast their smoking habits by wearing cannabis clothing or even just simply speaking up about their plant beliefs are more often than not met with some sort of snide remark or rude comment. Which isn't fair, considering some of the most successful people around these days seem to be smoking the reefer. There are two kinds of people that are against marijuana when it comes down to the bottom line.

The first group of people who strongly speak out against cannabis is the religious type. A lot of people who strongly believe in some sort of religion like to preach about how marijuana is bad for you and that it's the "devil's plant". People definitely still use that term, I would imagine mostly those who come from the deepest parts of the south. Now there's nothing wrong with believing in religion but if you do believe in some kind of creator, a supreme being that brought life in to the world, then you have to accept the idea that cannabis was put here for a reason. It seems unlikely that the plant's main purpose would be to be hated by the human race, especially since it occurs naturally and without human interaction. Some stoners even argue that marijuana is mentioned in the Bible and there are numerous other religions that use the herb in rituals and refer to it as an extremely powerful thing.

As for the second group, it's purely those who refuse to accept change. They are the ones who have believed that cannabis is wrong for such a long period of time that there is just no convincing them otherwise. They will argue with you until they're blue in the face but will never actually produce any legitimate information. So most of the time, they repeat the same few phrases; "it's a gateway drug", "it's bad because it's illegal", or "it's a severely mind altering substance". When arguing with one of these people, that's pretty much all you're going to hear from them. They don't have solid evidence and they refuse to listen to yours. The best way to deal with this kind of person is to just say what you need to say and let them talk until they run out of hot air.

Bottom line; marijuana use doesn't make you a terrible person. Stereotyping someone for smoking marijuana DOES make you a bad person. Just because someone likes to light a plant on fire and inhale it means that they're a terrible person, probably a criminal or a gang member? No. The stereotypes associated with cannabis need to fade out and disappear because we all know that they're not true. It's key to remember that all stoners should act the way they want the cannabis industry to be viewed.

Advocates of a proposal to legalize recreational cannabis launched their effort today in Maryland, calling cannabis prohibition an utter failure, and noting that the public’s support for the issue is growing rapidly.

“Continuation of the current policy is continuation of failure,” said Senator Jamie Raskin, a constitutional law professor and one of the sponsors of the new proposal. “It’s part of a conversation that is taking place across the country and across the world.”

Advocates have formed a new group, called the Marijuana Policy Coalition of Maryland, which includes advocates groups such as the American Civil Liberties Union, and lawmakers such as Delegate Sheila Hixson, Chair of the House Ways and Means Committee.

The proposal has been drafted, but has not yet been officially introduced in the state’s legislature. According to advocates, the measure will legalize the possession and personal cultivation of cannabis for those 21 and older, and will established state-licensed retail outlets to distribute cannabis.

A poll released in November by Goucher College found that 51% of those in Maryland support legalizing recreational cannabis, with just 41% opposed.

Angel food cake is absolutely delicious and as a stoner, you know that everything is better when it's medicated. This recipe will allow you to make an amazing angel food cake with some extra special ingredients! You will need cannabis flour for this recipe so be sure that you have some handy before starting this recipe!

What You'll Need;

1/2 tsp. almond extract

1.5 tsp. cream of tartar

1 cup cannabis flour

1.5 cups powdered sugar

1.5 tsp. vanilla extract

12 egg whites

1 cup cane sugar

1/4 tsp. table salt

First, as always, preheat the oven to 375 degrees. In a medium sized mixing bowl, mix together the cannabis flour and the powdered sugar and put to the side. Then, beat the egg whites and cream of tartar until the substance becomes frothy and well mixed. Slowly add in the cane sugar, almond extract, and vanilla extract. Then, proceed to add in the salt, continuously mixing. After all ingredients have been added, mix for another ten or so minutes. Take the cannabis flour/sugar mixture and slowly pour it in to the cane sugar mix. It's very important to add in the cane sugar mix 1/4 cup at a time and do not add the next 1/4 cup until the previous one has been mixed in well. Once everything has been well mixed, pour it in to an un-greased tube pan and put in the preheated oven for about 35 minutes. Remove the pan from the oven once the cake is done and immediately place the pan upside down over a metal or glass cup, so that the inside circle on the pan rests on the cup. Leave the cake hanging upside down for about two hours and then proceed to cut away the side and serve. Enjoy your medicated angel food cake and remember to always medicate safely!
